Try this....

1> Connect fone in download mode to pc with data cable

2> open odin uncheck reboot option and select on pda and put cwm_chotu.tar file there

3> after step 2 click on start button

4> After some seconds when odin says pass reset !!! On left top progress box ONLY THEN REMOVE UR FONE BATTERY .

5> put battery again and reboot fone as normal.

Remember : STEP 4 LAST LINE

ONLY REMOVE FONE BATTERY WHEN ODIN SAYS RESET PASS ! On progress box .

Now check ur cwm install .by going in recovery mode ( volume + home button + power button )

After that flash SuperSU....
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 General] roycejp:
This issue is common if you had updated your firmware O.T.A.

Solution is as given by Vishal Jethi, or else flash firmware manually via Odin, before flashing CWM.

Hi.

My grand duos wont boot. Everytime i turn it on it goes into recovery.

The phone is not rooted

If i try to wipe, it does that, but when i reboot: back to recovery.

I thought i might try to flash a new firmware using odin, but since i cant boot, i'm not able to turn on usb debugging.

i have installed usb drivers, but my computer gets "unknown device" and odin dont recognize the phone.

I'm completely lost :confused:

Anybody got an idea on this?

For rooting, you need to install super user.

To install super user, you need to flash CWM.

Flashing CWM only has issues (gets overwritten) only if you have updated your firmware OTA, not otherwise.

If CWM gets overwritten, then there are some battery-pull trick etc, after flashing CWM. Search this / hub threads for this solution.

Here is one post:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=40769210

Note this solution it's only if CWM gets overwritten after reboot.
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 General] IdenTT:

Just noticed the Grand is on dual core cpu only. Reason of getting Grand as saw the

Phones from China usually do not come with google play, rooting steps etc hopefully

someone will start one then.
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 General] x1123:
China has their own baidu. Intalling google play is not hard. Today challenge. Even cyanogen not officially support dual sim model which is getting very popular in Indonesia, China as well as India I think. Dual Sim model vendor dominated by National considering small vendor. Their after sales support are poor. They even did not provide any kernel source. Thus independent/free developer quiet difficult to start their dev activity on dual sim device.

I think one has to wait a bit and see in a few years what brand names have proven good.

For example in Indonesia there is smartfren, it's cheap but the locals don't praise it very much.

-Flash it via odin(same method)

And enjoy

There are people those who do for Thanks(he'll post many similar roms with 1-2 changes)

There are people those who do for tp(will leave a rom without fixing bugs and post another one)

There are people those who thinks developing is challenging(will hardly come to xda/somewhere unless he finishes his work)

Hi,

I have successfully rooted and installed Chotu's CWM recovery on my recently purchased Grand. I am facing the following problem.

I tried to install Asphalt 7 but the game fails to run.

I read in some other thread that upgrading to latest stock rom can solve the problem.

Can anybody give me the correct steps to do that ?

My current version (INDIA)

Android 4.1.2

Baseband version

I9082XXAMA9

Build No.

JZO54K.I9082XXAMB3

Kernel version

3.0.31-784570

I have downloaded the following file from Sammobile

I9082XXAMF2_I9082ODDMF2_INU

I have also taken Nandroid backup .

I need to have all my data back as well as Chotu's cwm and root after I upgrade to the new stock rom .

I need the correct steps to do that.

Thanks to all developers and best regards.
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 General] codekidX:
Hello,

First of F7 is the latest 4.1.2 firmware, search in sammobile you'll get it!

Here are the steps,

-Download Titanium backup

-Backup user data/apps and move the Titanium Backup folder to your sdcard(it will be in phone memory)

-Flash the latest stock ROM via odin

-Boot it and Keep it for some minutes

-Flash the CWM recovery

-Flash the superuser.zip file to attain root

-Again install the Titanium Backup app.

- Click Menu(Left soft key) > Preferences > Backup Location folder > Click on Detect > and select whole device >on the radio button after it detects > click on use current folder

-Now Restore it !!!!

LOL ...how did I type this much :P
[Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 General] micro88:
Thanks indeed Chotu, that was lightening fast !

Only one question. If for any reason I want to go back to my current state, can I restore using the Nandroid backup with your CWM ? I am confused about what exactly

is the difference between Nandroid backup and Titanium backup.

Thanks once again.

Thanks Chotu, I managed to flash the latest Stock ROM for India and also got back your CWM as well as root.

I am wondering how that happened ??

Also, is it safe to use Triangle away to reset the counter ?

Is that because flashing the new stock rom does not involve wiping data and cache unless done explicitly using cwm?

After i flash CWM, all occurs well. I flashed the supersu and i get root.
